The 7:1 Sleep Rule Could Add Years to Your Life—and the Tools I Use to Keep It
Sponsored by Tom’s Guide, this piece explains the 7:1 sleep rule—seven hours of sleep with a consistent one-hour wind-down window, five nights a week—and cites research suggesting it could add up to four years to life expectancy. It also offers a practical gear guide to help you stick to the routine, including Moonbrew Magnesium Sleep Aid cocoa, Three Spirit non-alcoholic nightcaps, a Hatch Restore 3 sunrise alarm, calming pillow sprays, journaling, and a sleep-tracker approach (e.g., Oura Ring or a Sleep Tracker Journal), plus mattress and sheet picks. The takeaway is that steady habits matter as much as fancy gear.
